Breaking Point: Tackling Systemic Racism in Sacramento

Description

• Visit Website

Join The Sacramento Bee for a livestreamed discussion, Breaking Point, on the issues of police reform and social justice and explore immediate solutions for the systemic issues in our police departments and other local institutions. Our diverse guests represent a broad spectrum of backgrounds and experience, from policymakers to activists.

Sacramento is among the most diverse cities in America, but is it truly inclusive? What changes must be made to ensure all neighborhoods receive the resources they deserve? What changes must be made to policing in Sacramento and California so that everyone — regardless of their skin color, neighborhood or income — is treated fairly?
